bros,
any self image issues and insecurity that women have with their looks can be traced back to male dominance and control of the beauty industry.
oh, wait, the editor of Elle magazine is a woman? same with Cosmo and all of those other teen rags that put beauty before substance 100% of the time?
they all come from (or grew up) in a misogynistic world where beauty standards were blatantly (or very cleverly secretly) put in place by men. if you think otherwise, youre naive.
do i really have to post pics of 1950's beauty ads? cuz i will. and then ill {censored} your mind with them.
also, in this thread: pbone agrees with me and takes it to the next level with balls slapping tits and what not.
I suspect many of these deep-seated insecurities could be traced back to time immemorial. Such an instinct is part of the ancient brain. Some are of course, are a convenient exploitation of this by the business of glossies and garments.
